Major Insect Pests

  • Cockroaches: These pesky, disease-carrying bugs are one of our most hated pests. Read all about cockroach extermination and prevention on our Cockroach Control page.
  • Termites: Termites (white ants) are a serious threat to any property they infest. We can help with a number of termite treatments including termiticide, bait stations and sub-floor ventilation. Get all the details on termite danger and management on our Termite Control page, or learn about the importance of regular Termite Inspections.

Other Insects

Ants

Though they don’t carry diseases, ants are a nuisance because of their tendency to spoil food and deliver irritating bites. Ants travel widely in search of food, and multiply to alarming numbers quickly when they find a safe environment.

Warning Signs

  • Large numbers of live ants
  • Ant trails in the garden
  • Nests made of soil near the home

Bed Bugs

These parasitic insects live in bedding, and feed on your blood during your sleep. Luckily their bites don’t transmit blood borne diseases, but they are often itchy and distressing. Bed bug leavings can also trigger asthma in sensitive individuals.

Warning Signs
bedbugs

  • An unpleasant, sweet odour
  • Small dark stains on bedding – either bed bug excrement, or blood spots
  • Live bugs (these are about 5mm long), or their shed skins, on mattresses

Fleas

As parasites, fleas bite humans and animals to feed on their blood. Flea bites can be intensely itchy, so secondary infection is quite common. They can in some cases also transmit dangerous diseases, including murine typhus, to humans.

As pet owners know, flea infestation can also be extremely upsetting to furry friends. In addition to itchy bites, many pets suffer allergic reactions to flea saliva, leading to distressing skin conditions and incessant grooming. Fleas can also transmit a variety of parasites, including tapeworm larvae. Your pet will likely show you the first signs of a flea problem – and it will be the first to thank you for getting rid of them!

Warning Signs

  • Pets constantly scratching/biting/grooming themselves
  • Fine black flea dirt (i.e. droppings) appearing near your pet’s neck or tail
  • Red itchy bites on your skin
